The response Of PR ]. w. Vandiver
published in yesteEy's s CIr1zEN is fair
reflex of the sentif ~ expressed in the
meeting held here Monday afternoon.
DIR. v looks at tEe1uestion in its proper
aspect; not one prosper Asheville
alone, not one to gide new rights, privil-
eges and powers tosfailroads, but one to
act upon the whole fody of the county,
its impress, its good influence upon each
and every township, to foster and
aggrandize the intelBstlof each and all of
them, and literally lee DIR. Vandlver ex.
presses it, makingtf Buncombe county
one great city.
This will be n. etically the direct
effect of the addl of the railroad
facilities contemplated in the action to
be submitted to the; feople. This means
railroad comnunica Jon where none now
exists; access to Tegsfns where now none
is had without labol and loss of time; in-
crease and vide diflasion of population

value for land whera none is now appre-
ciable; and genera, hIliF ersal stimulus to

NOTICE TO THE PUBLIC.


We wish to inform our patrons and the
public in general that we receive Oysters
and Fish fron the most reliable shippers.
Our fish come direct from Charleston in
one night, thus giving our customers an
article caught the day before, and at
even lower prices than fish caught on the
North Carolina coast. Among the fish
shipped us, we have a constant supply of
Fed Snappers, Sea Bass, Sheepshead,
Drum Writings, Blackfish and Mullet.
Our oysters are of the most select, and
guaranteed to us as being the best that
the market affords.
We handle no cheap quality of oysters,
all of ours being opened by hand, and
selected for their size. We advise the
public not to eat the cheaper grade of
oysters, as it is positively dangerous at
this time of the year. We wish It under
stood that every oyster and fish leaving
our house is fully guaranteed by us.
We have daily for our bill of fare-all
kinds of fresh fish, oystersin every style,
celery, fresh and crisp, direct from
Kalamazoo, Michigan We can also
furnish all the delicachs of the season if
we are given short notice. We will also
deliver oysters and filh cooked in any
style to any house Inside of the city
limits, without extra Charge.

A GROSS M1sAPPREHENs1oN.


One of the most outrageous of the
many mis-statements made in relation to
Asheville we learned yesterday from a
farmer from Haywood county. He came
into the city with load of fine apples,
and was afraid at every step he took that
he would :.be pounced upon by a town
official for a tax on his articles or his vo-
cation. He says it was industriouslv
circulated in his section, repeated on the
road as he came along, that a tax was
levied on every thing in the way of mar
ket supplies brought into Asheville.
This is another instance of the malig.
nant spirit of mischief which is abroad
to inJure Asheville.
The statement is absurd on its face.
Asheville is dependent upon the country
tor all its supplies, its chickens, its eggs
its fruits, its vegetables, its every thing
that supplies the table. It is not only its
policy but it is necessity t9 haXa egJ6fs fss
the farmer zEkS comjes IN Headed with
the products of his farm, and not only
permits, but encourages the fullest liberty
to go and sell when he pleases without
let or hindralce.
We have seen the list of taxable sub.
jects in the hands of Tax Collector Rey.
nolds, and we asked for it to make oul
assurance doubly sure. and it confirms
our every statement. The farmer is free
as air. He can sell when and what he
pleases of his own productions. All lies
to the contrary Notwithstanding.

THE PRIME AGITATOR."

The Bellevue Herald is worried
over the fact that the KEYSTONE
said in its last issue that Captain
Lusk of the Queen of the Hills
mine was regarded as the prime ag-
itator of the proposed reduction in
miners wages. The KEYSTONE
made assertion on information of a
character that warrants it being
correct and repeats it. The fact of
the Idahoan mine or the Smoky
mines working but few men has
nothing to do with the question of
wage reduction and the owners of
these mines were not charged with
being prime agitators" for the
simple reason that some one else
was meant. Within the past few
days word has come from Broadford
that the effort to cut wages was to
be made and expected in a very
short time and it would not be sur
prising to see the leading mines
there shut down in the hope of
forcing the men to choose between
no work or three dollars a day.

Dakota held an election to vote

that prohibition might possibly be
